Caveolin-1 is a target for academic and pharmaceutical research due to its many cellular roles and associated diseases. We report peptide WL47 (1), a small, high-affinity, selective disrupter of caveolin-1 oligomers. Developed and optimized through screening and analysis of synthetic peptide libraries, ligand 1 has 7500-fold improved affinity compared to its T20 parent ligand and an 80% decrease in sequence length. Ligand 1 will permit targeted study of caveolin-1 function.
由于其多种细胞作用及相关疾病,小窝蛋白-1成为学术和制药研究的一个靶点。我们报告了肽WL47(1),一种小的、高亲和力、选择性破坏小窝蛋白-1寡聚体的物质。通过对合成肽库的筛选和分析开发并优化后,配体1与其T20母体配体相比,亲和力提高了7500倍,序列长度减少了80%。配体1将允许对小窝蛋白-1的功能进行靶向研究。
